SP003-V Stencil Printer Adds Vision
August 15, 2006 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
GLASSBORO, NJ ESSEMTEC AG, an SMT production equipment manufacturer, updated its SP003 semi-automatic stencil printer to the SP003-V with vision. The available vision system supports faster control and alignment correction, according to the company. Print alignment is accomplished by clearance-free, fine-pitch thread screws. Other print parameters are adjustable as well.
The product features trans-stencil vision, a motorized print head, and vertical stencil separation. It accommodates stencils or screens up to 29 × 29". Designed for stencil printing, screen printing, print/print, print/flood and flood/print, the machine can print a maximum of 400 × 410 mm and measures 700 × 800 × 500 mm. It controls print parameters for squeegee pressure, squeegee angle, print speed, stencil position, and post-print stencil separation. The trans-stencil vision system improves alignment control.
Different print mount options enable use in flexible applications, such as vacuum, groove, flat, or magnetic table. The magnetic table is used mostly with single- and double-sided boards. The SP003-V suits small- and medium-volume production.
